I played some music tonight after walking the pups. “Hardcore” is what it’s called, though there are of course various sub-genres within that umbrella…and it’s so fun. Absolutely bonkers, but so fun.
What I didn’t realize about it was that a good 50% of music, AT LEAST, is super melodic and pretty. It always crescendos and drops into something super dirty, hard, and fast…but those sections never last more than 30 seconds or so at a time. The rest is epic and beautiful.
Musically, especially as a DJ, I’ve always loved the mixture of hard and soft. And in that regard, I finally get Hardcore. I get it. It’s dope. It’s so fun.
Work was hit and miss today. I got stuff done, but I wasn’t super, super focused. But, the writing continues to be good! Like…I’m really enjoying the world and the characters I’m creating. And shit is happening. The story isn’t lagging. I don’t think it is, anyway. We’ll see what I come up with when I go back for an edit.
The main thing, though, by far, is that I’m hitting my page count goals, and I’m enjoying what I’m writing.
Great week of work. Getting shit done.
Night!
